<p>@dnfkona - Is your daughter involved with the Catholic center on campus? Thanks for your response! I appreciate hearing about your decision. My son actually had a good overnight visit to ND but admittedly is probably not as sensitive to social vibes. Not something he would pick up on a quick visit ( which concerns me about his visits in general-he seems to like whatever campus he just visited)
@whatsnext -S did check out the band site and told me it was a scatter band. I looked at the site and thought it looked like a lot of fun with fun people. His hs doesn’t have a marching band so he has no marching experience anyway. I told him D’s band might not have as intense of a practice schedule as somewhere like ND. Has your D. been able to fit it into her schedule without problems? How have their social experiences been? Obviously the press about the protests, drinking culture, assaults is on the mind of the the parents of kids who are making decisions.</p>
